In case you forgot to hold a private memorial service, last
Friday marked the five-year anniversary of the Big Ferguson Incident, which, in
addition to giving Black Lives Matter its first big moment in the sun, sparking
riots that wrecked black-owned businesses in the St. Louis-area town, and
widening the racial divisions that continue to haunt us to this day, also kicked
the door wide open for ridiculously fake news from the mainstream media.

But while much of what the media has reported about that
fateful day has since been debunked, it doesn’t appear that Democrats have
gotten the message. Apparently, they’re too busy worrying about “truth” to
bother with the “facts.”

That’s why we got this tweet from Sen. Kamala Harris: “Michael
Brown’s murder forever changed Ferguson and America. His tragic death sparked a
desperately needed conversation and a nationwide movement. We must fight for
stronger accountability and racial equity in our justice system.”

And this tweet from Elizabeth Warren: “5 years ago Michael
Brown was murdered by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri. Michael was
unarmed yet he was shot 6 times. I stand with activists and organizers who
continue the fight for justice for Michael. We must confront systemic racism
and police violence head on.”

So yeah. Five years ago, a white cop murdered an innocent,
unarmed black guy in Ferguson. That’s what these Democrats believe. Or, let’s
amend that: That’s what they want voters to THINK they believe. Whether or not
they actually believe it is a matter of some doubt, seeing as how both women
are intelligent enough to read. Seeing as how neither of them could have missed
the Obama DOJ’s report utterly exonerating the Ferguson Police Department of
wrongdoing in the case. Seeing as how neither of them is so dumb as to think
that a cop would just decide, on the spur of the moment, to throw away his career
and maybe even his life for the chance to gun down a “gentle giant” in broad
daylight.

Then again, maybe they are. It’s really irrelevant. The
important – and disturbing – thing is that they are still spreading this
malicious lie five years after any intelligent human being stopped believing
it.

Fortunately for them, the Venn diagram of “intelligent human
beings” and “Democratic primary voters” does very little overlapping.

These bloodsuckers know what they’re doing. But that doesn’t
make it right.
